I swear these roaches are worse then lawyers.... Thanks to this real estate lady I basically pissed away 2 weeks trying to rent a nice place near my university. She tells me we are pretty much guaranteed the place, she just needs to run it by the landlord and that she wants us to fill out this rental application to show him,
So we do that, he likes us, and everything on the application checks out (we even have references from a Judge and a Police Inspector) so this guy had to go on business in California for a week and when he got back, we were gonna sign the lease (which was today at around 7pm) so anyways, this lady starts showing other people the house in the last week and locks up some deal with a couple and basically guaranteed the house to them as well, she even told the couple that we were interested and what we were willing to pay, so they offered a bit more and the landlord took it right away... None of this was ever confirmed with us, because we would of had no problem paying more and were very confident if a bidding war had broken out, we would of won.
So its back to Square 1, looking for houses again!
